The use of power divides society into two big parts - powerful and powerless, but this is not believed under the pluralistic theory of power. According to this theory, all the power in society is not concentrated in the hands of any one class or department, rather it is distributed among many groups. These groups cannot be placed in the categories of dominant and subordinate groups, rather they all exercise their own kind of power in their respective areas. Pluralism is used in different fields and in different forms. Generally, it represents a diversity of ideas. In today's democratic and dynamic societies, due to the growth of groups with different cultural characteristics and their participation and contribution being recognized by the state, most of the societies are developing into societies with mixed culture. The differences existing in the contemporary scenario of Indian society can be clearly seen. There is diversity in the society itself, that is why diversity exists in interests also. The pluralistic paradigm emerged late compared to other theoretical models of analysis and its appeal has been increasing with the passage of time.
